    Copy Local has no relevance at run time; only at compile time. All Copy Local does is control whether the referenced assembly is copied to the output folder or not. If you expect the assembly to be installed in the GAC when deployed then you would normally set it to False, otherwise set it to True. That doesn't change where the application looks for the assembly though.
